First Year and Loving TWC!

05.17.17
posted by a Walking Classroom Adopter

This is the first year I am using the Walking Classroom. My students and I are enjoying going outside, taking a walk, and getting some fresh air. I am loving how they are using the character education lessons they are learning through the character values and then applying them in the classroom.

We decided to chart our steps on a map of the United States. It is amazing to see how far we have walked together so far this year, and exciting to see just how many places we “traveled to” as a class.
